Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Ana is an ambitious intern dreaming of a career in the art world while trying to impress her demanding boss Claire. When she's upgraded to first class on a work trip, she meets handsome Will, and Ana pretends to be her boss– a white lie that sets off a glamorous chain of events, romance and opportunity, until her fib threatens to surface.

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://fandomwire.com/upgraded-review-a-ridiculously-inconsequential/ "Upgraded could have been an inoffensively formulaic, forgettable rom-com that borrows from hundreds of other similar movies, but the frustratingly simplistic conclusion with terrible messaging - basically conveying the idea that lying has no negative consequences, quite the opposite - ruins the hopes of a recommendation for fans of the genre. A predictable story from the first second without an ounce of creativity and with a complacent resolution to all the protagonist's problems. Camila Mendes and Marisa Tomei deserve more than the worst film of 2024 to date." Rating: D-
